ï· How does DNA play a role in inheritance? Sometimes I tend to think of DNA as the instruction manual for how people are made. DNA is accountable for the transferal of features and appearances that we inherit from our parents. Every individual is made from cells containing DNA in the cell nuclei.
DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is a long chain molecule that plays a central role in life on earth. The information encoded in strands of DNA controls the genetic makeup of organisms.The DNA molecule has a backbone of sugars and phosphate groups off of which hang simpler units called nucleotide bases.NA contains only four bases, called A, T, C and G. The sequence of the nucleotides along the backbone encodes genetic information. The four roles DNA plays are replication, encoding information, mutation/recombination and gene expression.
